With PS4s? I can't get my crappy Potenzas to wear down - they seem to have as much tread left (and that's loads!) after nearly 3k miles since I bought my Z a year ago. I can't justify binning them, so I'm probably stuck with them for another 12 months at least! I take it easy in the wet/damp with the Z anyway and in all honesty the Potenzas seem fine in the dry whilst commiting to some lairy driving, although if I jumped into a Z with MPSs fitted I'd most likely feel the difference.

I recently renewed my Nismo insurance with LV - just a tad under £300 fully comp, max NCB, with Ecutek and HFCs declared. The "specialist" companies didn't come close, with one even asking for the mods to be done first before they'd even look at quoting - how nuts is that?!!

What I'd thought, maybe better as a track tyre brand.

How about Toyo? They're big in the world of racing in Japan, US and Oz. No idea what their road tyres are like.

Welcome along, get some pics up of the three!

Abbey look after my Nismo, I wouldn't go anywhere else. It went in for Ecutek and HFCs last November. With regards to the rear wing, what make/brand is it and did you fit it yourself?

Next one, Saturday 5th February.

That looks stunning, welcome along. That must be a rare sight, a 70 plate on a Z.

Are these the Pirellis that Hyundai have "specially" developed for their N range?

Holy post revival Batman! When my Potenzas finally wear down a little more and I can justify replacing them, alongside the 'BIGGER' names I've been looking at alternatives. Hankooks are one of them - you obviously think they suit the Z?

I think "Mr February" is the best shot - but then I am being biased! You'll love it, all top photos.

Received mine today as well, thanks Stu. Great work with superb photos!

I paid £23,500 for my late 2017 370Z Nismo (16.5k miles, full history and immaculate) a year ago in February 2021. Out of curiousity a few months ago I put the car's details into WBAC and was quoted, at the highest point, £27,500. It's now down to about£24k, but it's obviously a year older now and with 19k miles on it. Looking at AutoTrader regularly, as you do, dealer prices still do seem high in comparrison, but there are a lot of 350s and 370s that sit there for weeks on end. Ekona's two points above are very relevant.

If I were nearer. Looks good though.

Next one is tomorrow, 22nd January.

I know we're only just gradually coming out of this winter and nobody wants to think about the next one, but just to put it out there Goodwood have announced their BC schedule for this year. Vee-Power Sunday, 6th November 2022 - bookings to register for track display are being taken now, which I've just done. Hope a few more Zs can make it.

I think we did M40/A40 actually. Couldn't face it on the way back so cut down over Kew Bridge, then A316 to the M3, M25.

Yeah, it was a complete ball ache. Straight outa Cobham into creeping traffic. Well over an hour from there to Ace.

Just a thought in advance Martin, but if there's going to be a rendezvous at Cobham services again could it be a bit earlier? I can't recall what time we met and set off last year (10 ish at least) but the mid morning M25 traffic was a nightmare. I reckon a strict 09:30 departure would see us at the Ace not a lot before 11:00 anyway.

Yep, I saw the signs for that road closure. I later learned that it was a bike accident and the fatality was a friend of a friend of my daughter's.

All clear thankfully. Thanks for highlighting the issue, will be keeping an eye on that area.

Jeeez, that's not good. You can guess what I'll be checking today.

NO LONGER FOR SALE - Thanks for looking

Pleased to see that one Z got along at least - did you talk to the owner? I think he's on this forum. Were you there quite early? Later in the morning the car park became pretty full.

What's the score with these now? 2017 V2 Nismo.
